Several important deals in real ostalo are pn the point of beir.p complolcd , but rumors of such transactions creep out bo fore the parties concerned nro ready to glvo the public the facts , and such ru in ors in their exaggerated form often jsorvo to interfere with deals which would otherwise bo closed. When men are making a trade of Ibis sort ( .hoy do not Inform the public of every stopJas they are taken. It Isn't business , and to sat isfy the curiosity of the public would often defeat tlm very purpose sought to bo accomplished. The reporters are asked many times a day why llio papers have not announced Kiioh and such a sale and what truth there is in such and such n report. Just as fast as any transfer is complete the public will bo informed promptly. Tlio same is true in regard to other enterprises being worked up , the public statement of the exact progress of which woulu hinder and often injure. Confidence and patience arc needed.

The oilier evening at the council meet ing Iho city woighmastcr . S. Amy , called attention again to the causes ot complaint us to the treatment ho has received - ' ceived at the hands of the city govern ment. A rather hot discussion resulted , and during the progress of the same Al derman Shugart ralhcr laid the fault upon tlio .shoulders of City Marshal Guanella. That olllcial did not take It easily , and claimed that ho had boon but following the will and wish of the coun cil. The city marshal hasconcluded that if the city council want to have tlm en forcement of the ordinance strictly , ho will undertake it , and ho will at once commence ordering the teams away from Main sired , where tlmy have boon in Iho habit of slundinjr. Tlio altompt to make the hay ami wood loams stand by the eltv buildmtrs will doubtless call out. another protest from tlio business men on Main street , near the juncture of that street with Pearl. The marshal proposes to clear himself of all blame in the matter - tor , and will buck himself up by the fol lowing ordinance and resolution : "He it ordained by the [ common council of the citv of Council Blutrs that suitable lo calities bo designated by resolution from time to tune by the council for standing room for wncons loaded with hay and wood , offered for sale.

Tlm cold weather has caused some delay in getting tlm new lire alarm sys tem -.iml police call completed. To-day was tlm time sot for a public test , but tlm system will not be ready for such a test tor a week to come. There has been some talk about the company having the contract not having yet filed its bonus , as provided for in tlm contract. It has boon urged , apparently by those anxious that another company should have the con tract , that the city is running a great risk. If the company should not tile its bonds , the city would bo In a bad Shane , as the city lias expended several hundred dollars in getting ready for it , and it would oc that much out of pocket , etc. There lias been considerable of this kind of stuff whispered about , and doubtless some good citizens have boon made nervous about it. It appears that the company having the con tract is preparing its bonds , and tlmy will be liled before tlm city is asked to pay a cent , or accept tlm work. It also appears that what the city has expended - ponded time and money upon has been the poles and wires , ami even if the com pany should back down completely , throw up the contract , lly to Canada or commit suicide the city would lose noth ing. The poles and wires are as gooil for one system as for another , and could easily .bo used for another system. Besides - sides that , the company has property enough hero to secure the city for any claim. In fact there seems nothing to the gossip but an attempt to annoy , and as such the motive can easily bo seen. Tlm city seems to bo not in any dauber as yet , and there is plenty of timq yet before - fore any of the interests of Iho city will bo in jeopardy. Hard and soft coal , best quality , all Bi/.cs.

The squabble in which George Ger- spnclmr lost his $500 diamond pin was looked into yesterday by Judge Aylcs- worth , and Ed Bates and Kobort Couly were discharged , tlmy being booked for dislurbing the peace. . The court found thai ( iconic Gerspacher was Iho disturb ing element , and the only one * to hlamo for Iho row. Ho was lined the usual amount. Tlm search for tlm missing diamonds has not resulted in finding them. It is now claimed that the pin was taken in the saloon before the squabble on tlio sidewalk. The appearance of Gcrspachor's shirt front indicates that the pin was torn out of the linen , instead of havimr beeomo loosened and dropped. Gorspachcr has bad tlm cluster pin for six or seven years , and it is emi which would easily bo recognized bv many. Tlm loss of il makes George's last spree rather an expensive one for him.

Late last night n number of diamonds wcri ) found on Hroadway , near where George Gcrspaeher is supposed to have lost his cluster pin. They were not in the setting , but were scattered near the walk. J\'ino in all wore thus picked up , and they were deposited in the safn at the Crystal saloon for .safe keeping until this morning , when they will probably bo identified by the owner. They am sup posed to be the stones which were in tiorspaoher's pin , and in that case were probably knocked out of the setting in the sculllo. This lind will relieve the un pleasant suspicion that some one stole the pin. Pianos anil Organs. W. W.

Gardner efFort Fort Scott , Kas , , who is at the Palmer , said to a Tribune reporter yesterday that St. John , the apostle of prohibition , had a very small following in Kansas just now. Kansas , Air. Gardner said , was a republican state , and if had very little tiso for a man who owed every position in life to the republican party and who then turned around and sold it out. "St. John , " said Mr. Gardner , "owes nil that ho is to tlm republican party , and his action in joining hands with its enemies - mies lead Iho people of Kansas , or Iho majority of them , to think that it was money or something else that induced him to do as ho did. 1 am not a prohibitionist , although 1 voted for it , but our experience shows that high license would bo the proper thing , To bo sure wo have got rid ot barroom loafers , but people living in the towns on tlm border go to Missouri and bring over all the whisky they want. The drug stores furnish liquor to the mou who go before the probate judge and got a cer tificate that the applicant needs liquor for his health. This is a good thing for the judge , as ho sets fi conls a certificate , but tlm practice ) is tlm evil of the prohi bition law. Tlm rich men , or high toned class of drinkers , do not patronize the drug stores , but have their wines , brandies , and ales furnished from sources outside of tlm state and sent to their houses. Prohibition might amount to something if there was a national law prohibiting tlm manufacturing of alcohol , until then prohibition in Kansas will bo a failure.
